We, of course, do not worship the Pope. However, we do hold him as our spiritual Father. Why, one may ask? Because Jesus tells us so. In fact, Jesus told us that he would "not leave us orphans" and that Peter would "strengthen his brethren" after he returned from his betrayal. In context, then, I love this little reflection on the Holy Father under whom most of us under 35 remember growing up under.
Nevertheless, may Christ richly bless us with the reign of Pope Benedict XVI, who ostensibly deeply loves the Church, may we learn to deeply love him as Christ's choice for our foster-father!
